Masters in the art of travel

“A passion for our job is our strength”

We are more a family than a company. We spend many hours working very hard in the office and we like to joke and have fun together. Every day we find an excuse to take a break together and enjoy coffee and a pastry! Our staff is our strength. We are a group of people animated by a great passion for traveling and making people happy by traveling.

Good communication with our clients is the most important thing to us. We build lasting relationships with our clients, working together to create unique products and make our customers happy. As travel professionals we are not only a supplier but personally involved in providing careful advice.

30
Years of Experience

We have been in business since 1985; we started as a classic tour operator, but soon we realized that the future of travel was something else. We are now an experiential tour operator and we customize every service in order to offer creative and amazing, tailor made products. Just like a tailor, we start with loose pieces of travel concepts and work with passion to stitch them together into the perfect journey.

“-We're probably the first tourists they've had since the war.
-Tunner, we're not tourists. We're travelers.
-Oh. What's the difference?
-A tourist is someone who thinks about going home the moment they arrive, Tunner.
-Whereas a traveler might not come back at all”.

Sales Executive and Travel Consultant
Federico comes from Costa Rica, so he brings the Latin-American joy and liveliness. He started his career as a bank employee, but since he had been traveling for many years, a career in the travel industry was a natural fit.
Very patient and smiling, he loves to have contact with clients and to make them happy.
In the past, he escorted tour groups and that experience gave him a better picture of what people expect from a trip and how to continuously improve services we provide to our customers.

Administration
Mauro is our administrative controller. Invoices and all sorts of administrative documents hold no mystery for him. He is very experienced, ironic, and a little bit surly-looking like a real controller has to be; but people who know him well also know about his gentle nature.
He’s so precise in figures that we still remember the day when he was so dismayed about the loss of 76 cents.
Very professional and devoted to his job, Mauro’s the first to arrive in the office and the last one to leave every day.
His passions: traveling and all sort of sports, especially biking (although his two sons are the big champions and always fill him with pride). It is true also, rather than actually playing he enjoys watching sports on TV by lying on the sofa….
